Lyrics
Deep down in Louisiana close to New Orleans
Way back up in the woods among the evergreens
There stood a log cabin made of earth and wood
Where lived a country boy named Johnny B. Goode
Who never ever learned to read or write too well
But he could play a guitar just like a-ringing a bell
Go, go
Go, Johnny, go
Go
Go, Johnny, go
Go
Go, Johnny, go
Go
Go, Johnny, go
Go
Johnny B. Goode
Well, he was never getting money, had to gather the crop
Buying that guitar at the grocery shop
Always used to play it by the railroad side
Never get in trouble, she be saddled as fuck
She never even thought that it could be like this
Give her by the side, a goodbye kiss
I say go
Go, Johnny, go
Go
Go, Johnny, go
Go
Go, Johnny, go
Go
Go, Johnny, go
I say go
Johnny B. Goode
Well, they finallygot the letter they been dreamin' of
John wrote and told her he was fallin' in love
As long as they were married by the railroad track
Never get in trouble, that would be just that
She never dreamed a day would come for a day like this
And he would give her by the side, a good bye kiss
I say go
Go, Johnny, go
Go
Go, Johnny, go
Go
Go, Johnny, go
Go
Go, Johnny, go
I say go
Johnny B. Goode
(Now watch this, watch this)
Well, I say go
Go, Johnny, go
Go
Go, Johnny, go
Go
Go, Johnny, go
Go
Go, Johnny, go
I say go
Johnny B. Goode
